Avalakki Dosa

So here is another type of dosa to make on a Sunday morning! Made out of rice and avalakki/poha, it comes out extremely fluffy and soft. Accompany it with a coconut chutney of choice and it makes a perfect weekend breakfast! To make it better, make some Mango Seekarane also and sever along with chutney and the weekend is made!

Method:Batter:• Soak the rice and methi in enough amount of water for 4-6 hours• Wash avalakki and soak in curd and more water for 30 minutes• Grind both together into a smooth paste and let it ferment overnight• Next morning, add salt and mix wellDosa:• Heat the griddle• When the griddle is hot, smear a few drops of oil• Pour 1 to 1 ½ Tbsp of batter on the griddle. Spread it like a normal dosa - thick or thin as you want. The dosas come out fluffy• Smear a few drops of oil• Cook on medium heat, covering• Serve hot with a coconut chutney

Notes:• Increase the amount of curd if you want a sourer tinge• Do not cook the dosa on high flame. It’ll brown too soon
